David Millar Quotes

I sat there with everything - and I had nothing Picture Quote #1

The past is as important as the future, but we only live in the here and now Picture Quote #1

Cycling is based so much on form, on aesthetics, on class - the way you carry yourself on the bike, the sort of technique you have Picture Quote #1

I shave my legs twice a week. It’s hard the first time you do it. But I’m very lazy. For a team photo in December I just did the fronts Picture Quote #1

In fact cycling has always been ‘saved’ by judicial investigations and not by the anti-doping controls we put in place. That’s the harsh truth. We have relied on them to clean the sport up Picture Quote #1

In Italy it’s full-on stardom when you’re a cyclist - eating in restaurants for free, it’s great Picture Quote #1

Everything that’s going on within the peloton - there’s about ten different races going on. There is also a survival element to it - I love the fact that it’s so epic. You crash on a bike, the first thing you do is try and get back up on it. No whinging! Picture Quote #1

Cycling is such a stupid sport. Next time you are in a car travelling at 40mph think about jumping out - naked. That’s what it’s like when we crash Picture Quote #1

My epiphany came in that police cell: I realised I was about to lose everything and it didn’t bother me, not in the slightest. I’d come to hate cycling because I blamed it for the lie I was living Picture Quote #1

To be brutally honest, it’s simple economics. If they want to come into cycling, sponsors need to know the team they are funding is clean, otherwise the risk is just too great Picture Quote #1

It was very quiet at the hotel, as if there had been a death in the family. When you have quit the Tour, nobody really knows what to say or do. (...) Everything I’d previously achieved meant nothing; all I was now was a pro rider who couldn’t finish the Tour de France Picture Quote #1

Often the best guys are just those that can suffer longer, who don’t give up. And it’s so easy to give up, when you’re on a mountain and it’s really hurting. We go through a lot physically Picture Quote #1

I had grown used to getting a pat on the back and being told after a good result: ‘Well done, David - you should be happy, you’re the first clean rider Picture Quote #1

One group of riders doped, the others alongside them racing clean. You can work out for yourselves which group was fastest Picture Quote #1

The manner in which one loses the battle can sometimes outshine the victory Picture Quote #1

I might have changed, but that did not mean the sport had Picture Quote #1

I’ve been proud to be national champion Picture Quote #1

Survival is the main objective. There are going to be some awful days, I know that from my background in the sport Picture Quote #1

The sky was falling down on me and I spent most of the time drunk. It was the only way I could handle it Picture Quote #1

It seemed romantic but also tragic - people would be winning but then lose it all, or crash but fight on, break bones but get back on their bikes and try to finish. Just getting to the end was seen as an achievement in itself Picture Quote #1

Now there are two or three teams who are very ethical in their outlook who have opened up the economic benefits and that is probably going to be a turning point in the sport Picture Quote #1

My epiphany came in that police cell: I realised I was about to lose everything and it didn’t bother me, not in the slightest. I’d come to hate cycling because I blamed it for the lie I was living Picture Quote #1

I think if I get the training spot on, the equipment perfect and I’m in the right state of mind, I can get a result there from no competitive action Picture Quote #1
